eyes that are black as the night

as soon as I smell blood, I strike.

if you don't pay back

innocent

be attacked, attacked.

Hiding in shadows,

Cast by the moon.

Mobsters are waiting,

Inside the saloon.

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.

I'm a loanshark,

Does your mother know I'm after you?

I'm a loanshark,

Down on your knees

I'm a loanshark,

I'll squeeze what I want from you.

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.

Many a man,

Are in debt to me.

concrete,

And into the sea.

(?)

I have spies all over town.

Don't laugh,

"Cause this man ain't foolin' around.

No way!

Hiding in shadows,

Cast by the moon.

Mobsters are waiting,

Inside the saloon.

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.

I'm a loanshark,

Does your mother know I'm after you?

I'm a loanshark,

Down on your knees

I'm a loanshark,

I'll squeeze what I want from you.

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.

Hey, hey, that's right boy,

You better come up with that greenback dollar,

Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout baby!

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.

I'm a loanshark,

Does your mother know I'm after you?

I'm a loanshark,

Down on your knees

I'm a loanshark,

I'll squeeze what I want from you.

I'm a loanshark,

Collecting payments overdue.
